I'm in Detective Conan, and the system has appointed Batman.

"Dad, you..."

Ran Mouri was at a loss for words.

The banquet that Kazuha Toyama mentioned was actually an invitation for Shizuka Hattori to participate.

However, just as Hattori Heiji had mentioned when he investigated the arson case involving the red horse in the flames, Hattori Shizuka had to go to the hospital to recuperate because she had pierced her foot with an iron skewer while eating barbecue.

So now he can only have Hattori Heiji attend the banquet in his place, and also have Hattori Heiji go to Meiji Shrine to draw a fortune stick.

The current situation is quite obvious.

Heiji Hattori, as one of the filial sons, completely forgot about Shizuka Hattori's matter and pushed it to Kazuha Toyama, while he himself disappeared without a trace with Conan, and no one knows where he went.

This invitation has changed hands twice; I wonder if the butler on the other side will even recognize it then…

However, whether Kazuha Toyama goes or Heiji Hattori goes, there's really no difference.

Because Toyama Kazuha and Hattori Heiji can actually be considered family friends.

Her father, Ginjiro Toyama, was the head of the Criminal Investigation Department of the Osaka Police Headquarters. He was Hattori Heiji's father, Heizo Hattori, and had been his subordinate and partner for many years. The two families were very close.

Therefore, Kazuha Toyama could actually represent Heiji Hattori, it's just that the idea of ​​Kazuha Toyama representing Heiji Hattori or Shizuka Hattori sounds a bit too abstract.

"Let's set off then, first to Meiji Shrine."

Kazuha Toyama took out his invitation, glanced at it, and then put it back in his bag, saying earnestly.

They then got into the car and drove towards Meiji Shrine.

However, what Toyama Kazuha and her group were completely unaware of was that Hondo Eisuke's clothes had been bugged, allowing them to hear all their conversations.

I gently adjusted the channel on my headphones.

Hondo Hidemi, who was at Nichiri TV preparing her speech for tonight, focused her attention back on the speech in her hand and stopped paying attention to Hondo Eisuke's situation.

If Hondo Eisuke were to go to the Suzuki Foundation Exhibition Hall with Mouri Kogoro today...

Then she will step in and bring Hondo Eisuke back.

The Black Organization has received some intelligence.

There's probably going to be a big problem at the Suzuki Foundation exhibition hall today; it's very dangerous. Even if Hondo Eisuke goes there, there's no guarantee she can bring him back.

When navigating this dangerous crime-ridden city, safety is of paramount importance.

Chapter 925 People Who Apply the Law of Threefold Increase in Strength After Darkening

While Kogoro Mouri and his group had already set off for Meiji Shrine.

Yuya Kazami, a member of the Public Security Planning Division of the Japanese Public Security Bureau, has also met with Takaaki Morofushi. The two met at a nearby coffee shop to discuss the matters they had discussed the previous day.

The Japanese Public Security officer asked with a serious expression.

"Mr. Morofushi, I'm entrusting this matter to you."

"If we want Inspector Furuya to get back on track, we can't do it without your help. After all, you are the older brother of Officer Morofushi Kagemitsu."

Upon hearing this, Zhu Fu Gaoming frowned slightly and asked.

"If that's the case, why not let Kagemitsu and Mr. Furuya have contact?"

“I remember when Kagemitsu last contacted me, he said he had left the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department to do other work. Why are you still calling Kagemitsu ‘Officer’?”

His question came from the heart.

In theory, the identities of members of the Japanese Public Security Bureau are to be kept strictly confidential from outsiders, even from their own brothers. Morofushi Hiromitsu did just that when his file was transferred from the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department to the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department.

He did not tell his fellow police officer, Morofushi Takaaki, that he had been transferred to the Japanese Public Security Bureau.

Instead, he told Morofushi Takaaki that he had resigned from the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department to find other work and could not return for the time being.

Therefore, Morofushi Takaaki is still unaware that Morofushi Kagemitsu has sacrificed himself during his undercover mission.

Upon hearing Morofushi Takaki's words, Kazami Yuya fell silent for a moment.

He didn't know how to tell Morofushi Takaaki for a moment.

The fact that Morofushi Kagemitsu has already sacrificed himself is something that can no longer be said.

Moreover, Morofushi Kagemitsu hadn't told Morofushi Takaaki about transferring his file from the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department to the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department. Therefore, he couldn't go against Morofushi Kagemitsu's wishes and tell Morofushi Takaaki about it.

However, sometimes silence is already an answer.

Morofushi Takaaki noticed that something was wrong with Kazami Yuya's expression.

His eyes narrowed slightly, some guesses forming in his mind, and then he spoke.

"Jingguang transferred to the Japanese Public Security Bureau, right?"

"Are you currently working undercover, just like Inspector Furuya you mentioned? That's why you can't easily contact the outside world?"

Upon hearing this, Kazami Yuya quickly nodded and said.

"Yes, yes, that's it."

The fact that you're so quick to admit it means that the truth must be different.

If Rei Furuya and Hiromitsu Morofushi were both engaged in undercover operations, then why did Rei Furuya's side encounter problems while Hiromitsu Morofushi's side remained unaffected? It's likely that Hiromitsu Morofushi wasn't tied up with an undercover mission, but rather...

Zhu Fu Gaoming had a guess in his mind, but he did not say it aloud.

With his abilities, verifying this would be quite simple.

All you need to do is ask his former superior, Kuroda Heiwa, and you'll know.

Before working at the Nagano Prefectural Police Headquarters, Kuroda Hyōe was a member of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department and had considerable connections within the department. He was able to find out Furuya Rei's true identity and even knew his code name, Bourbon Whiskey.

If it's confirmed that Morofushi Kagemitsu is with the Japanese Public Security Bureau, then we can ask Kuroda Hyōe for help, and we'll soon know the specifics.

However, Morofuku Takaaki did not intend to verify it in this way, but simply said...

"You want me to help you wake up Officer Furuya, right?"

"However, under the alias Red Hood, he has already done many things that cannot be done according to legal procedures. Even if your Japanese Public Security Bureau has the power to act against the law, this situation is still quite troublesome, isn't it?"

Is it possible that he was conscious from the beginning and didn't need us to "awaken" him at all?

He had his reasons for saying that.

Although Morofushi Takaaki had never actually met Furuya Rei, he had received a message from Chen En this morning, from the detective who wanted to become a superhero.

He doesn't need to go to the Suzuki Foundation Exhibition Hall today; it's best to stay away from it and avoid contact with the red-hatted figures.

If we look at what Chen En initially said...

If he had the potential to awaken Furuya Rei's true consciousness, there would have been no reason not to send him to help today. But the fact that he's being told not to go can only mean one thing.

Either Chen En has confirmed that he has no chance of waking up Furuya Rei, or Furuya Rei has been conscious from the beginning.

He felt it should be the latter.

If it's the former, how could Chen En know that he had no chance of waking up Furuya Rei as the Red Hood without even trying? Given that detective's illustrious reputation, isn't it too strange to do this?

That's a famous detective who's known for wanting to control every single variable.

"...Even so, we must try our best."

Kazami Yuya said earnestly.

"Wouldn't it be terrible to declare failure without even trying?"

Upon hearing Kazami Yuya's words, Morofushi Takaaki remained silent for a moment before nodding.

"In that case, let's do as I promised you before."

"This time I will go with you to try to awaken the consciousness of Inspector Furuya, who has become a red-hooded officer. But won't the Japanese Public Security Bureau have a problem with you acting on your own?"

When faced with this question, Kazami Yuya replied matter-of-factly.

"Actually, I was already injured before, and I could have applied for sick leave."

"I've just been busy with other things, so I didn't apply for leave. Now I'm just saving up all my vacation days to use them all at once. Don't worry, the Japanese Public Security Bureau isn't so bad that they would even monitor the whereabouts of their own subordinates."

Zhu Fugaoming nodded slightly.

That's certainly true.

How could there be such a terrible intelligence organization?

However, what Morofushi Takaaki and Kazami Yu were unaware of was that someone had overheard everything they said.

The person eavesdropping on this conversation at this very moment is a member of the Gold Watch Division of the Japanese Public Security Bureau.

This professional among professionals is naturally a force to be reckoned with. He had already noticed that something was amiss with Kazami Yuya and further investigated that Kazami Yuya would be meeting with Morofushi Takaaki today.

Although he didn't know much about Kazami Yu, he did have an impression of Morofushi Takaaki.

Morofushi Takaaki was the top student in the law department that year. If he wanted to enter the professional group, he could definitely enter the gold watch group. Therefore, he was quite concerned about Morofushi Takaaki's affairs.

Kazami Yuya's sudden contact with Morofushi Takaki means he must have something to say.

However, the members of the Gold Watch Group never expected that what Kazami Yuya was going to do with Morofushi Takaaki would be so explosive.

He sat in the chair, tapped the earphone casing with his fingers incredulously, and muttered to himself.

"Rei Furuya is the Red Hood? That's so weird!"

"Why didn't that guy show his fighting prowess when he was still with the Japanese Public Security Bureau? Does he also have a 'turned evil' setting that makes him three times stronger? Or is he just putting me on the receiving end of a prank within the Japanese Public Security Bureau?"

Chapter 926 Hakuba Saguru is just an amateur.

"Morofushi Takami and Kazami Yuya have already met."

"These two seem to be planning to go find that guy called Red Hood and get him to turn over a new leaf. Oh my, it's hilarious. How can you possibly persuade someone who's been controlled by magic to come back to life with just a few words?"

"If magical control could be broken with mere words, then what would be the point of exorcists?"
